How we repair the flashing at your roof line
Water that soaks in above the flashing
Brick and mortar absorb some rain, and on a long wet day water can travel down inside the chimney wall. Brick industry details deal with this by carrying the counter flashing through the wall and turning it up inside. Water within the masonry is then caught and led out.
Counter flashing set only into the face joint does not catch water that is already inside the brick. If staining continues after the roof junction is sound, the masonry above the roof may be the next place to look. We explain that possibility rather than replacing the flashing twice.
Approving the flashing work within the window
The free inspection in Tamarac gives you findings and a written estimate before anything is decided. If you approve the flashing work within 72 hours of your free inspection, 10% comes off that service. The window counts from the inspection at your own home.
You do not have to decide on the spot. Read the estimate, ask about any line you are unsure of and compare it with other proposals if you wish. The offer is simply there for people who have the answers they need and want to go ahead.
A family team at your roof line
We are a family-owned, locally owned company, and the people who assess your flashing in Tamarac are part of our own team. The person who explains the findings can answer questions about the work, because the same team does it.
Tell us how you prefer to hear about findings, on site or afterward, and who else in the household should be there. Upfront pricing and no hidden fees mean the estimate is the conversation, not the start of a negotiation. If something is unclear, ask, and we will go through it again.
Flashing matters even if the fireplace is unused
A fireplace nobody lights still has a chimney passing through the roof. The flashing around it keeps water out of the house regardless of whether anything burns below. An unused chimney can leak for a long time before anyone notices, because nobody looks at it.
If your chimney is out of use, the flashing and the top still need attention now and then. We can include them in a maintenance visit. If you plan to use the fireplace again, tell us, because the inside of the flue is a separate check.

Before you approve flashing work in Tamarac
Should I paint over the ceiling stain now?
Wait until the flashing repair is done and the area has dried. A fresh coat of paint makes it harder to tell whether the stain is still growing. If the mark spreads after the repair, tell us promptly so we can look again.
Can flashing be fixed while it is raining?
The roof has to be opened at the chimney, and sealants need dry surfaces, so heavy rain usually moves the date. If rain arrives partway through, we cover the open area before stopping. In an urgent situation, we can talk through temporary steps.
What does the flashing workmanship warranty cover?
It covers the flashing we installed and the way we installed it, as described in the written record. Parts of the roof or chimney outside the agreed scope are not included, which is why the scope is written out face by face.
